Hello Gandalf81

Have you tried a system restore point to a date before you installed the updates http://windows.micro.../system-restore

If the above is not an option try uninstalling all updates up to the point that the issue started and then install them one at a time and see if they all install correctly or if you can identify a particular update that causes the issue.

Removing bad updates and reinstalling them;

Go to Add/Remove Programs
Click the box on the top that says Show All Updates
Scroll through and find the offending update/s and remove it/them.
Now try manually updating again one at a time and see if it corrects or identifies the faulty update/s.

Thanks.... I started 2 delete them but you have to delete them 1 by 1 and that takes a long time so since I had almost nothing on the computer I decided to reformat. hopefully the problem won't pop up again in case it does I will be back here for help.

[phillpower2]

You are welcome

I take it that the first and easiest option a System Restore was a no go then.

[Gandalf81]

ok I downloaded SIW to find out what type of ram I had and came up with this... to me it looks like some RAM problems... going to open her up and make sure their fitted right... [attachment=62005:screenshot.png]

[phillpower2]

See canned text below to check out the Ram;

How to physically test your Ram.

The following checks require the computer case to be opened so take the following safety precautions 1st, disconnect the power cord from the wall socket and take anti static precautions before touching anything inside, you can do this by touching a bare metal part of the case.

Have a pencil and notepad to hand.
Remove each stick of Ram and blow out the memory slots.
Insert the first stick of Ram in memory slot one, reconnect the power and in the case of a desktop computer the video to screen cable.
Power up the computer and see how it goes.
Make a note of the results.
Repeat the procedure until the first stick of Ram has been tested in each memory slot and the results written down.
Remove the first stick of Ram and put it to one side on top of a piece of paper with the number one on it for identification purposes.
Repeat the procedure with all Ram until each stick has been tested in all slots, the results written down and the sticks identified numerically.

Please note that some MBs (motherboards) will not boot unless there is Ram in slot one so please refer to the user manual for guidance.

Take it out and put it back in making sure to get it back in snug.

Might be a good idea to follow the the steps in this video it is quite possilbe you knocked something loose.

Unplug the tower open up the side.Get can of compressed air and blow out the machine and reseat the ram modules video card etc,see video Plug it back in and see how it goes.WHILE YOU HAVE THE RAM AND VIDEO CARD OUT BLOW OUT THE SLOTS THAT THEY PLUG INTO.ALSO BLOW OUT THE HEAT SINK.SEE VIDEO

[Gandalf81]

WTH was I thinking?!?!?) Well now that thats done, and its off my chest, when I turn on the pc it turn on for abou 30sec then turn off and thne back on and so on... hooked up a usb mouse and it doesnt light up, neithe does the keyboard.... from lookin on google i reseted my BIOS what can I do now ? can anyone please please help me ASAP....

[rockmilk]

Have you put the battery back in yet if not then do so there should have been no harm done when you removed the Cmos battery.
